Light, durable, and functional: these are the qualities that make aluminium one of the key engineering materials of our time. We can find aluminium in homes we live in, automobiles we drive, trains and aeroplanes that take us across long distances, ladders, mobile phones, computers we use on a daily basis, in the shelves inside our fridges, and in modern interior designs.

Aluminium ladders are lightweighted and resistant to moisture and corrosion. However, they can conduct electricity, and therefore should never be used near energized electrical equipment.
